I am trying to do some basic restoration of astronomical images. I can find nothing in the documentation of @astropy or @SciPyTip about Lucy-Richardson, MEM, etc. Help?

Any good sources you like for variable star data? Creating a lesson for students and for physics teachers, probably using matplotlib at this point... #iteachphysics #astronomy @astropy

This summer I am mentoring in @HowardIsaacson1 . Will share the lecture recording once it's done. In the meantime you guys can take a look into the assignment problems set my me. github.com/aburousan/Intro2A… (Using @astropy @SciPy_team and @numpy_team ) #Python #astronomy #Physics

I have a question @astropy : I know its possible to calculate parameter covariance and std during fits, but is it also possible to get the uncertainty of the fitted functions value if I evaluate it?

Congratulations to @astropy for winning the #Adass2022 software prize. Well-deserved 👏👏 !
Does anyone have or know of any good demos of the @astropy visualization package? It looks really good, haven't really used it before and not an expert on image processing. cc @LearnAstropy

Is there a simple way to construct an @astropy 2D convolution kernel from a 1D array of response-as-a-function-of-radius? I can certainly construct it myself with interpolation, just wondering if there's a simple built-in way since it seems like a common use case.

RADIS 0.12.1 was released today ; - more accurate for very thin lineshapes. - @vaex_io is the new default HDF5 library for all platforms (faster!) - use arbitrary @astropy units when rescaling spectra - and many docs improvements But mainly : we welcome 5 new contributors !

Specutils is a @astropy coordinated package, and we provide it in Debian as well.
Today's random code is Specutils: Spectroscopic analysis and reduction ascl.net/1902.012

@astropy I'm struggling to get a WCS using fit_wcs_from_points, I get an output but inserting the values gives me incorrect information in my image. More details here: stackoverflow.com/questions/…
